Strategies

Investing the BCM way.

Our investment firm uses proprietary strategies to achieve our investing goals. 

Structured Fundamentally-Based Process

* Uses both quantitative and fundamental analysis
* Quantitative techniques for stock filtering and risk controls
* Fundamental review of investment opportunity
* Same process used for longs and shorts
-longs attractive/shorts unattractive

Competitive Differentiation

* Fully integrated quantitative and fundamental analysis
-competitors segment into either quantitative or fundamental
* Applying structured techniques to growth stocks
-quantitative investors are ‘value’ oriented;
fundamental growth investors do not use quantitative tools
* Risk Managed
-hedge funds target high returns with little risk management focus

Risk Managed.
